    Try this for a weeknight supper - marinate overnight, and bake or grill it the next day.

    The summer season is here! Time to light up the flames under some mean, tasty food. Of course, no summer get-together is complete without some skewers thrown on to a grill. For this dish, I recommend using lean, top sirloin steak cuts for a healthier red meat option, mixed up with some colorful vegetables. The marinade fuses the Latin flavors of aji, cilantro and lime with the Asian flavors of the soy sauce. The low saturated fat content of canola oil allows the marinade to stay free-flowing in the refrigerator.
